Abstract
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program, which can suppress a low frequency range component with a small amount of calculation, and can achieve a noise suppression of high quality, are provided. The noise superposed in a desired signal of an input signal is suppressed by converting the input signal to a frequency domain signal; correcting an amplitude of the frequency domain signal to obtain an amplitude corrected signal; obtaining an estimated noise by using the amplitude corrected signal; determining a suppression coefficient by using the estimated noise and the amplitude corrected signal; and weighting the amplitude corrected signal with the suppression coefficient.
Claims2
A filter for suppressing a specific frequency component of an input signal, comprising at least:
- a first filter that executes a first filtering process for an input signal in a time domain to obtain a time domain filtered signal;
- a converter that converts the time domain filtered signal to a frequency domain signal for each frame configured with a plurality of samples;
- and
- a second filter that executes a second filtering process for the frequency domain signal in a frequency domain to obtain a frequency domain filtered signal,
- wherein the first filter suppresses at least a direct current component.
